1There was a man of Ramathaim, a Zuphite from the highlands of Ephraim whose name was Elkanahson of Jeroham, son of Elihu, son of Tohu, son of Zuph, an Ephraimite.2He had two wives, one called Hannah, the other Peninnah; Peninnah had children but Hannah hadnone.3Every year this man used to go up from his town to worship, and to sacrifice to Yahweh Sabaoth atShiloh. (The two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there as priests of Yahweh.)4One day Elkanah offered a sacrifice. Now he used to give portions to Peninnah and to al her sons anddaughters;5to Hannah, however, he would give only one portion: for, although he loved Hannah more, Yahweh hadmade her barren.6Furthermore, her rival would taunt and provoke her, because Yahweh had made her womb barren.7And this went on year after year; every time they went up to the temple of Yahweh she used to taunther. On that day she wept and would not eat anything;8so her husband Elkanah said, 'Hannah, why are you crying? Why are you not eating anything? Why areyou so sad? Am I not more to you than ten sons?'9When they had finished eating in the room, Hannah got up and stood before Yahweh. Eli the priest wassitting on his seat by the doorpost of the temple of Yahweh.10In the bitterness of her soul she prayed to Yahweh with many tears,11and she made this vow, 'Yahweh Sabaoth! Should you condescend to notice the humiliation of yourservant and keep her in mind instead of disregarding your servant, and give her a boy, I wil give him to Yahwehfor the whole of his life and no razor shal ever touch his head.'12While she went on praying to Yahweh, Eli was watching her mouth,13for Hannah was speaking under her breath; her lips were moving but her voice could not be heard,and Eli thought that she was drunk.14Eli said, 'How much longer are you going to stay drunk? Get rid of your wine.'15'No, my lord,' Hannah replied, 'I am a woman in great trouble; I have not been drinking wine or strongdrink -- I am pouring out my soul before Yahweh.16Do not take your servant for a worthless woman; al this time I have been speaking from the depth ofmy grief and my resentment.'17Eli then replied, 'Go in peace, and may the God of Israel grant what you have asked of him.'18To which she said, 'May your servant find favour in your sight.' With that, the woman went away; shebegan eating and was dejected no longer.19They got up early in the morning and, after worshipping Yahweh, set out and went home to Ramah.Elkanah lay with his wife Hannah, and Yahweh remembered her.20Hannah conceived and, in due course, gave birth to a son, whom she named Samuel, 'since', shesaid, 'I asked Yahweh for him.'21Elkanah, the husband, went up with all his family to offer the annual sacrifice to Yahweh and to fulfilhis vow.22However, Hannah did not go up, having said to her husband, 'Not before the child has been weaned.Then I shal bring him and present him before Yahweh and he will stay there for ever.'23Elkanah her husband then said to her, 'Do what you think fit; wait until you have weaned him. MayYahweh bring about what he has said.' So the woman stayed behind and nursed her child until she weaned him.24When she had weaned him, she took him up with her, as wel as a three-year-old bul , an ephah offlour and a skin of wine, and took him into the temple of Yahweh at Shiloh; the child was very young.25They sacrificed the bul and led the child to Eli.26She said, 'If you please, my lord! As you live, my lord, I am the woman who stood beside you here,praying to Yahweh.27This is the child for which I was praying, and Yahweh has granted me what I asked of him.28Now I make him over to Yahweh for the whole of his life. He is made over to Yahweh.' They thenworshipped Yahweh there.
